More quotes by James M. Barrie

James M. Barrie
Absence makes the heart grow fonder… or forgetful.

On these magic shores children at play are for ever beaching their coracles. We too have been there we can still hear the sound of the surf, though we shall land no more.
James M. Barrie
Never is an awfully long time.
James M. Barrie
Always try to be a litle kinder than necessary.
James M. Barrie
I am not young enough to know everything.
James M. Barrie
I'm youth, I'm joy, I'm a little bird that has broken out of the egg.

There could not have been a lovelier sight but there was none to see it except a little boy who was staring in at the window. He had ecstasies innumerable that other children can never know but he was looking through the window at the one joy from which he must be for ever barred.
James M. Barrie

James M. Barrie
One's religion is whatever he is most interested in.
James M. Barrie

James M. Barrie

James M. Barrie
Men's second childhood begins when a woman gets a hold of him.
James M. Barrie
It's a sort of bloom on a woman. If you have it, you don't need to have anything else, and if you don't have it, it doesn't much matter what else you have. Some women, the few, have charm for all and most have charm for one. But some have charm for none.
James M. Barrie
He was a poet and they are never exactly grown-up.
James M. Barrie
She was not a little girl heart-broken about him she was a grown woman smiling at it all, but they were wet smiles.
James M. Barrie
You just think lovely wonderful thoughts, Peter explained, and they lift you up in the air.
James M. Barrie
Dreams do come true, if we only wish hard enough, You can have anything in life if you will sacrifice everything else for it.
James M. Barrie
